Congo Square in New Orleans has great significance when it comes to the people of New Orleans. It was the one place during slavery where people of color could gather weekly and dance, play music, socialize and practice African cultural traditions. In Congo Square, it was safe to be an African again. Some say jazz was birthed here out of the drumming and Voodoo rituals that took place in Congo Square before the Civil War.
In this limited edition work of art Ted Ellis depicts, enslaved Africans gathered at Congo Square in New Orleans dancing and playing music. Not allowing the harsh conditions of the time to kill their spirit and culture.
